Why you shouldn't just delete the spam in your inbox

Have you ever been sent a marketing email that didn’t have an unsubscribe button? Or maybe you’ve received a message from a company you’re sure you’ve already unsubscribed from?

More and more businesses are getting caught out for breaching Australia’s spam laws- including Kmart, Ticketek and Uber just in the last few weeks.

Today on this extra episode of The Briefing, we speak to Andrew Williams, CEO of the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network, about what happens when companies don’t follow these rules, and why you shouldn’t just delete your spam.
